EXPLORERS MAssACRED.
Fate OF DIR. HoIub land His Part,
In the Interior of Africa.

Fate OF DIR. HoIub land His PARTY
In the Interior of Africa.
Traders from the interior of Africa report
nat the explorer, DIR. Holub, his wife, and
the whole party that accompanied him hove
been massacred by natives DIR. Emil Hol1.
was comparatively young Austrian paysi
clan who received a wide and exact
scientific training, and who entertained a
longing TO explore Atricl from his boyhood.
AS soon as his educ iSion was completed he
started for his field of work in as deliberate
and business-like way as il he had gone I,
settle down to the practice OF his profession
Indeed, he simply made use OF his medical
knowledge to obtain the means wherewitb
to carry out what he seems TO regard as the
work Of his life-the scientific exploration of
Africa.
The last detailed news from him reached
Vienna in August last. The letters then re.
ceived covered the period from the end of
February TO the beginning OF My, during
which time he was on the Upper Zambesi
near the sources OF the Lualab COMO and
KaSssl. Although DR.. Holub had barely re
covered from a severe attack Of malarial
fever, it was his intention to push north into
the interior. His wife, wh) accompanied
him, hal so far escaped illness. Sons OF tn
extensive collections of d.. Holub had al
ready arrived in Europe L. was, however
his intention, in view of the diff ,ulties o /
transp ortation, to give mp adding to his CO...
lections and to limit him3ef to pictorial yen
Iesentations.
